Continue on the same track through woods with occasional clearings until
you reach the Torrens chalet and the GR5 (major long-distance footpath
marked in red and white that runs through the Alps from Lake Geneva to
the Mediterranean). Take the GR up to the left until you reach Les Mattes
where you arrive at the turning to the beautiful Grange combe. Follow the
path down past le Pron until it comes to a track that crosses it at right
angles. Turn right and some yards further on fork left. Continue on this jeep
track until you arrive back at your starting point in Très les Pierres.
